One of my only good managers was a former deep welder. He said the light and electrical current draws the attention of weird shit that will just come and watch you work.

I dunno, I kind of prefer Daft Punk's old masks

I see underwater and welding and Norway and can't help thinking of the Byford Dolphin. Scary shit.

False, it clearly says NYD (New York Diving) on their gear.

(/s)

To make sure this isn't entirely a shit comment it looks like their helmet has a flip down welding protection filter maybe? Also, is that yellow thing a dive knife?

I cannot imagine how hard I would shit my ocean if I was out swimming and one of these dudes rolled up on me out of the water, as I have submechanicaphobia and thelassiaphobia, this is such a terrible and good meeting point of the two fears, and is spine tingling-ly creepy in the best way.

For an instant, I thought that said "wedding" and I was super intrigued.

Their helmets make me think of the power armor helmets from Fallout (specifically the T-40 series or whatever it was called), never looked into the lore regarding the power armor but I wonder if inspiration for the design might have been drawn from these

Deep sea welding is a hell of a job. You have to spend days or weeks slowly getting submerged so you acclimate to the pressures. Then the same thing back.

eheu! korvax!

Welding, basket weaving, what's the difference? You're doing things with your hands, you're underwater, it's quiet, and people are paying you.

The school is in fact not under water. That would be ridiculous.

This is where they film the space walks

Cool helmets.
What's all that shit for, though?

Can they have a beard? Is it itchy?
